Things are going extremely well in the career of Ovince St. Preux right now, but as the light-heavyweight approaches his UFC 174 bout with Ryan Jimmo, he continues to re-set his goals.

OSP will face Jimmo armed with a four fight win streak, which has moved him into the promotion’s coveted top 15 rankings. While speaking to UFC.com about his recent success, however, the 31 year-old relayed:

“Being in the Top 15, that wasn’t good enough for me. It’s an accomplishment in and of itself, but it’s not over yet,” said OSP, who is currently ranked #14. “Now my thing is to break into the Top 10. Once I break into the Top 10, then it’s the Top 5. Once I break into the Top 5, then it’s the championship.”

Most recently, St. Preux (15-5) choked out Nikita Krylov with a first round choke at UFC 171 in March.

Jimmo (19-3), on the other hand, is coming off a first round, KO win over Sean O’Connell in April.
